Summary
Description
Brain peptide responsible for activation of prothoracic glands to produce ecdysone in insects.
This venom insulin facilitates prey capture by rapidly inducing hypoglycemic shock. Intraperitoneal injection of this peptide into zebrafish lowers blood glucose with the same potency than human insulin. In vivo, when applied to water, this peptide reduces overall locomotor activity of zebrafish larvae, observed as a significant decrease in the percentage of time spent swimming and movement frequency.
Subunit
Heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two disulfide bonds.
Miscellaneous
Silk worm has two kinds of PTTH: 4K-PTTH and 22K-PTTH; there are many forms of 4K-PTTH.
Silk worm has two kinds of PTTH: 4K-PTTH and 22K-PTTH; there are four forms of 4K-PTTH.
Similarity
Belongs to the insulin family.
